Rigatoni Pasta Pie

Forget traditional pasta casseroles! With the noodles standing upright, the sauce and cheese bake down into the pasta making each slice equal for edges and filling (no more fighting for the corner piece!). This is a family friendly recipe, easily adaptable to dietary needs (vegan? try a mushroom bolognese instead of meat). Baked in a spring-form pan, this pasta pie serves up beautifully, and easily prepared ahead of time. Give this one a try for your next pasta night. It won’t disappoint. but then again, does pasta ever disappoint?
